Message from the Managing Director

Dr. Laxman R. Katrat
Managing Director & CEO
Dear Valued Partners, Customers & Friends,
When I founded Katlax in 1994, my vision was clear — to build world-class industrial connectivity solutions right here in India that could stand shoulder-to-shoulder with the best in the world. What started as a modest sensor manufacturing unit in Gujarat has grown into a globally recognized name in industrial circular connector technology.
Over three decades, we have built our capabilities methodically — investing in advanced design and development tools, establishing a fully equipped testing laboratory, and creating a vertically integrated manufacturing facility in Santej, Gandhinagar. Today, our facility houses injection molding, cable processing, precision assembly, and comprehensive quality assurance — all under one roof.
Our products — M8 and M12 circular connectors, 7/8 inch series connectors, wiring harnesses, IO junction boxes, and a complete range of accessories — are certified to the highest international standards by TUV Rheinland Germany, and carry CE, UL, UKCA, RoHS, and REACH certifications. I take immense pride in the fact that we serve over 4,000 customers across 35+ countries, and that our US subsidiary in Wilmington, Delaware extends our commitment to the American market.
Looking ahead, I see tremendous opportunity at the intersection of Industry 4.0, electric mobility, and sustainable manufacturing. Our motto — 'REDUCE MATERIAL & LABOUR, BE ECOFRIENDLY' — is not just a slogan. It guides every product we design and every process we optimize.
I invite you to explore our products, visit our facility, and experience the Katlax difference. Together, let us build a more connected and automated future.
With warm regards,
Dr. Laxman R. Katrat
